The difference is that the Republican party will possibly ask for (may not get) him to step down, not run again, or other reparations.
The Democratic party would say "that's just Grayson being Grayson and a good spokesmen for our party". Hell, they defended Teddy Kennedy until his passing and beyond... and we KNOW what he got away with.

RE: OOPS! Congressman Vance McAllister Busted
Unfortunately after the headlines go away over this incident, there will be two real victims. This congressman is a p.o.s. as is this woman. I don't care what party he is in.
On Tuesday, husband Heath Peacock – a family friend who last year gave McAllister’s campaign $5,200 – denounced the 40-year-old congressman as a fraud.
“He’s had a hand in not only turning my life upside down, but also my son’s,” Peacock told Inside Edition. “He’s not who people think he is. If people really knew him, he wouldn’t be elected. This religious family man – this is completely false. He’s not like that. He’s the most non-religious man I know.”

But he's a politician.
How many times have we seen Obama and family heading off to church. By the things he espouses it's a certainty that he's no Christian either. Or to whom he listens for Christian teaching. It's a joke.

RE: OOPS! Congressman Vance McAllister Busted
Somewhere is the polluted sludge that is the background of this story is the anonymous source that peddled this video that was taken outside his district offices to the media.
if it happened at Christmas and its just coming out, you have to be curious what's been happening for the past three months.

The Clenis absolutely damaged the country's radar for this sort of thing. everything from "she had sex with me, I didn't have sex with her" to the definition of "is". he distorted reality to wriggle off the hook, and our national sense of right and wrong was the casualty.
if you want to trace it back to when our national sense of disgust over politicians sexual antics became a bewildered "whatever. I don't care anymore", you don't have to go any farther than bill clinton and his unfinished blow jobs.

Throughout last fall’s congressional campaign, McAllister, a Republican from Swartz, touted his Christian faith and in one television commercial, he asked voters to pray for him. At least two other campaign television commercials featured McAllister walking hand in hand with his wife, Kelly, while their five children walked along. One television commercial captured the McAllister family in the kitchen of their home preparing breakfast before attending church.
McAllister and his wife have been married for 16 years.

Never mind that he'll not lose his seat over this. David Vitter paid a prostitute to dress him up in a diaper and didn't lose his seat.
Its Louisiana. Where GOP Senators retain the 'moral voter vote' because morality in Louisiana has been reduced to simply opposing equality and dignity for Gay persons.

Vitter and McAllister are quite moral compared to Ray Nagin, David Duke, and William Jefferson. They are the best choices in Louisiana for carrying the moral flag.

It does matter. Slick Willy lied to congress, under oath. He is a sexual predator. He was disbarred. He was impeached. I'd say that matters, but liberals want to ignore Clintongate and it is unbelievable that today he is held in high esteem. So I'm here to remind you of what a sleazebag pile of sh!t the Clintons are. Yes, it does matter. The truth does matter.

In fact, McAllister will lose his seat "over this", and rightly so. Whether he resigns now (as I prefer him to do), or chooses not to seek re-election, or is defeated for re-election, time will tell. But one way or another, he will be an ex-Congressman nine months from now, and "this" is the reason why.

Is he being primaried? He certainly won't lose the seat in favor of a liberal democrat. You think they are going to vote for someone who votes against family values or someone who votes for family values, but doesn't practice them? I think Sen. Vitter showed us that answer.

McAllister should quit NOW. If he doesn't, the house should vote to expel him. Same for Grayson.

Louisiana has a non-partisan "open primary" on Election Day (filing deadline: August 22), and if anybody gets 50% +1, they win. If not, the top two (regardless of party) have a run-off on December 4 (a Saturday).
AFAIK, no other Republican has announced they are running so far (I mean, this just came up in the last couple of days). But the Chairman of the Louisiana GOP has publicly called for McAllister to resign. Politically, he is toast. It's just a question of whether he wants to drag out the pain/embarrassment all through the year, or man up and accept responsibility. So far, it's looking like he's choosing the first option.
As a friend of mine mentioned today: "McAllister hasn't Quite reached Carlos Danger/Mark Sanford territory. But he's getting close."
